At my last gig I avoided Bitnami container images and Helm charts wherever possible. We (me plus an AWS consultant) used Karpenter Autoscaler, Envoy Gateway API, Gatekeeper OPA, Loki/Prometheus/Grafana Stack, EDB Postgres Operator, ... and deployed all through a single comprehensive terraform script to an EKS cluster. I tried to keep reliance on one single company as low ad possible. I even had a Plan B to replace S3 with MinIO in case the company decided to move to another cloud provider or an On Prem Kubernetes cluster.

My recommendation to everyone is to avoid Cloud Vendor Lock-In from the start, and even if it's more initial work, to try to have as much as possible running on Kubernetes.
